The English Language.
Have you ever wondered why foreigners have trouble with the English
Language?. Let's face it. English is a crazy language. There is no egg in
the eggplant No ham in the hamburger. And neither pine nor apple in the
pineapple. English muffins were not invented in England. French fries were
not invented in France. We sometimes take English for granted But if we
examine its paradoxes we find that Quicksand takes you down slowly, Boxing rings are square. And a guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig. If writers write, how come fingers don't fing. If the plural of tooth is
teeth. Shouldn't the plural of phone booth be phone beeth, If the teacher
taught, Why didn't the preacher praught. If a vegetarian eats vegetables.
What the does a humanitarian eat? Why do people recite at a play, Yet play
at a recital? Park on driveways and Drive on parkways. You have to marvel at the unique lunacy. Of a language where a house can burn up as it burns down. And in which you fill in a form by filling it out. And a bell is only heard once it goes! English was invented by people, not computers, and it reflects the creativity of the human race (Which of course isn't a race at all) That is why when the stars are out they are visible, but when the lights are out they are invisible, and why it is that when I wind up my watch it starts, but when I wind up this observation, it ends.
